Hey all, I wanted sell mine new I phone 15 plus and I putted the phone in fabric formation with no sim card. After meet up the buyer took mine phone and run away. Any options to block this phone so he can not use it with the imei? Or something else I need support. Thank you

If you prepared it correctly for a new user and it opened to the Hello Page, when you power it on, your Apple ID, nor Find My would be enabled on the phone. The only thing you can do is contact your carrier and have them blacklist the phone.

Contact your carrier to have them "blacklist" the phone so that it cannot be used by anyone else.
No don’t wait call them! Once the other person steals the phone all they had to do was take it to their provider and have it activated.
the only way to prevent that is by IMMEDIATELY calling your provider to have them blacklist the phone.
besides, most of the time when you go in to a cell provider store, those are just sales people they can’t help you with issues like this and they will just tell you to call in.
Oke so tomorrow morning I will go there to the carrier(shop) and tell them to put on blacklist?
you don’t contact Apple, you contact your service provider. T-Mobile, Verizon, cricket, whomever you go through
You don't contact Apple. Apple doesn't get involved in lost or stolen devices. You contact the carrier you had cellular service with. Apple cannot and does not blacklist iPhones at all.
You can see the phones location through iCloud website but only if the phone is still online. If they reset the phone to factory settings and signed in with their own Apple ID then there is nothing you can do to track it.
Aside from Find My, there isn't.

If the phone wasn't set up on your Apple ID and Find My enabled on the phone, you can't track it.
Call your cell provider and let them know it was stolen and they can put a block on the sim so it can’t be reactivated by anyone else.
Is there also a option that I can see where this phone is. Where located. I tryed to look on find.me but i have seen nothing. Is there not any tracking method to find my phone? Its hard because I putted it on fabric modus for the next user. I have still everything the box and receipt. My last icloud login was in that phone.
I setted up before I used 2 days the phone after it buying it the phone. Then I wanted sell it and now is stolen. My I cloud is connected before (history) with this phone. I have the code of thr phone. But I deleted everything inside of this phone for the "next user". Can I block the phone so he can not enter the phone. For next new user. My simcard is out. He have only the phone. "new/used".
Sim is not inside.. i reboot l the phone to new and took my simcard out. "For the next user" so "new". He took from my hands and run away.
I try contact apple but they are closed. Open from 09:00 till 18:00
My iPhone has been stolen, what can I do?
